Hello,

• Data policies are similar to UI Policies, but UI policies only apply to data entered on a form through the standard browser.
• Data policies can apply rules to all data entered into the system, including data brought in through import sets or web services and data entered through the mobile UI.
• Data Policies, unlike UI Policies, execute on the server.
• You cannot make a field visible or hidden using data policies, because there is no server-side equivalent of a contextually hidden field.
• There is also no Advanced view, no scripted conditions, and no UI or server-side scripting possible through a data policy (except to the extent that scripting is possible inside of any condition builder to make a determination about whether the data policy should run).
